GOD MAN &TRUTH

“If the moral
principles and the precepts contains in the Scriptures are to form the basis of
all our civil constitutions and laws. All the miseries and evils which men
suffer from vice, crime, ambition, injustice, oppression, slavery and war,
proceed from their despising or neglecting the precepts contained in the
Bible.” Noah Webster

In trying to understand God, men often time
express and interpret God from the nature of man. There is nothing wrong with
Gods principles but often time men manipulate Gods Word to suit their selfish
ends. In trying to better understand human needs and made Him known mortal
sometimes misrepresent God. They speak from the perspective of men, from the
judgmental nature of men, which is retribution, violence, vengeance, unforgiving,
always looking for faults to satisfy their inadequacy.

I do not believe in Christians who accept
Christ but never practice His principles, which hide under the name of
Christianity to make life unbearable for their fellow human beings,
hypocritical and fanatical. I believe in the Christian of Christ who accept
Christ and practice His principles. Who embrace charity and the command, “Thou
shall love thy neighbour as thyself.” Mark 12:31. Where there is no real
love there is no reformation.

The number of titles we acquire does not
determine the measure of a mature Christian but obedience is better than
sacrifice. 1Samuel15:23. We may do things in God’s name that do not mean we are
in total surrender. Not everyone that eats with you is your true friends. When
it comes to the interpretation of God personal sentiments, emotion, the tradition
of men, narrow mind thinking often times take centre stage. Gods made life
plain and simple but men has made complex and complicated. The manipulate of
God’s Word creates confusion, if we call ourselves Christians we ought to be patience,
tolerant, long suffering, forgiving, not self seeking, these are beatitude of
love. Often time we get Christianity missed up with religion/tradition of men
which weight down on us and that hinder us from reaching our potential for
Christ. “If ye love me, keep my commandments.” John 4:15

In trying to make God known men display the
nature of men rather than the nature of God. Men are always judgmental but God ever
loves. John 3:16-17. Judging is not the
nature of God and God is not the author of vengeance or violence. No matter how
justified you may think God is not judgmental. He touches our very being
peaceful. God’s nature is peaceful and He is the God of mercy, gentleness,
unconditional love. “If anyone hears my words and does not keep them, I do
not judge him; for I did not come to judge the world but to save the world.”
John 12:47

“All men, even the most seemingly cold –
blooded, have a core of decency, and, that if their hearts are touches, they
are capable of changing.”
Man’s weaknesses are Gods opportunity to effect permanent change in his life. Our
weaknesses serve as pointer to God. Is either we seek the God of the living or
the god of the dead.

God Is Not The Author Of
Divisive Narrow-Minded Ideology

He is universal, ever patience to lead His
children to the path of truth. He is the father of the gentiles and the father
of the righteous. “You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbour and
hate your enemy.’ But I tell you: Love your enemies and pray for those who
persecute you, that you may be sons of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun
to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the
unrighteous. If you love those who love you, what reward will you get? Are not
even the tax collectors doing that? And if you greet only your brothers, what
are you doing more than others? Do not even pagans do that? Be perfect,
therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect.” Matthew5:45

God Is Neither Partial Nor
Biased.

He is the God of mercy. Whether black or
white, all his children are his favourite. Men have fought many wars in the
name of religion. Men are ever hungry for power, to bring the less powerful
under their control. Some men are highly possessive when it comes to power.
They want to control everybody and if it is not their way or hell will let lose.

Whereas

God is not
power hungry. After all God is not in competition with other powers. He is
the beginning and the end. The Alpha and Omega. Jesus is Lord forever. Revelation 22:13 . Satan
takes permission from God.

Moreover, He
does not force His will on any men. Because He has empowered man to live
right, make the world a better place for all.

God is not
in competition with anyone.

He is ever
patience, loving, kind, patiently waiting for us men to respond to His unfailing
love. “The Lord our God is merciful and forgiving, even though
we have rebelled against him.” Daniel 9:9

He knows how
to get our attention without creating fear in us. For God is not the
author of fear. “For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power,
and of love, and of a sound mind.” 2Timothy 1:7

He does not
want to control and turn us to robot; He wants us to respond voluntary to
His unconditional love. Love is not by force. If you do not respond to God’s
love voluntarily, he would never force Himself on you.

Evil beget evil, intolerant, violence,
vengeance are products of hate. God is peaceful. From where you are, admiring
nature you can breathe the gentleness of God. Nature is still God’s best
missionary.

Nature is the very thought and the awesome
beauty of our God, full of inspiration. Nature is an amazing wonder that
continues to inspire human beings to great inventions. Natures itself is an
expression of a supernatural powers beyond man. Its beauty is breathless, it
leaves us calm mesmerized and harmonies.

“Oh, how I wish I
could sing like the bird,” murmur the humble

Fly away to moon
land
Play at the spotless cloud land and
Sing my way home”

When You Are Alone In The Wood, Nature Calms You Down.

Nature is peaceful, even in the world of
cannibals there is peace. It is in the world of human beings that violence
reigns supreme. God created the earth to recycle itself but often time men
disrupt nature and unfortunately, where men goes destruction follows them. Men
are destructive, some time unloving, men love exploiting each other whereas
Gods kind of love is not selfishness but refreshing.

That is why when men try to interpret the
nature of God they often time does it from the nature of man. The reasoning of
man takes over. We try to make God known from mortal perspective. What we say
at that particular moment depends on the states of our minds, whether we like
or hate the person and if we do not like the person we are trying to correct,
we try to judge and make them feel weak, incompetent and irrelevant.

We interpret God as not compassionate,
faultfinder who is ever looking to punish his children for any little mistakes.
Instead of mercy, we vest punishment. Instead of love, we transmit hate;
instead of forgiveness, Instead of tolerance we express intolerant. Instead of
understanding, we shout, fight and break TV; we promote unforgiviness whereas God
forgives. “But with you there is forgiveness; therefore you are feared.”
Psalm130: 4.

Faultfinding Is Not of Gods Nature but the Nature of Man.

God is ever merciful, long suffering and
forgiving. Slow to anger ever willing to give second third chance. Because the
disobedient is already judge by the law he breaks. That is why He provides a
way of escape. “If anyone hears my words and does not keep them, I do not
judge him; for I did not come to judge the world but to save the world.” John
12:47

Look in history
conquest have been from the perspective of power, violence, stronger nations
enslaving smaller nations. Big brothers taking younger brothers for granted.
Older sister taking younger sister for granted. In this new dispensation, the
world should crave for dialogue, mutual respect among nations. Warfare has
never and will never solve human conflict in this century but constructive
dialogue and discussion will enhance and create mutual respect among nations
and unity strengthens. Warfare creates more havoc destruction among humanity.

The truth to try to suppress any nation with
old ideas of exploitation through military might it will not work in this
century. There comes a time that the oppressed will rise against its
oppressors. When men are push to the wall, they have no other alternative but
to react by whatever means they possibly can. Man cannot completely dominate
his fellow man. When domination meet domination there is bound to be damnation,
flesh for flesh, a colossal messed. Those with terrorist agenda are inflicted
with weak principles. Violence is the weapon of the weak.

When old ideas die the new takes over moreover
when old leaders die the new takes over and new ideology is birth. The old is
gone and the 21s century leader should Endeavour to be. . .

•Good
listener

•He
must have mutual respect for his fellow man

•He
must be willing to dialogue

•The
super power must build a new relationship among emerging economies if not they
may become island to themselves, with nowhere to sale their products. “When
the right hand washes the left hand and the left hand washes the right hand,
both hands become clean.”

•The
old is fading away and the new has come to stay. Nation rise nation falls. When
men are born, men are dying and when roses fade another one is born. When
flowers fade, the grass grows again. Every one of us is a traveler in this
world, in journey to know and the unknown.

It is primitive
to think in this 21st century that one race will dominates others just as it
used to be these past years. That era of one race supremacy is dead with those
who promote it. The truth is that the world is more educated about the world
than it used to be. The less strong are now stronger than what they were many
years ago. It is only wise that men should respect each other.

The Lies of the Past Have Being
Reveal.

The less important are finding their voice and
the most powerful are falling by the wayside. The less important is becoming
the master while the formal master will have to listen to the voice of the
formal oppressed. The 21st century is a time of surprises and military might
will only widening conflict, create greater conflict in the world. Dialogue and
mutual respect will broaden friendship and create new allies with greater
economic prosperity; the economics of emerging countries will grow and
experience stability even in the midst of turbulent times.

The World is Changing so Change
With It.

The world is not any one property. As you
journey on leave good memories at the sand of time. The world is moving so with
it. The world has a new face, so embrace it. Those that live in glasshouses
should not throw stone for it will come back on them. We live at vulnerable
times, time to stop think and reason, time to move forward. Until a man solves
the riddles of yesterday, he cannot answer the problems of tomorrow. If you are
unable to understand how you get to today then how will you get to tomorrow?

Oh, thou mortal, the world are waiting to hear
from you. Until you reign, the world has nothing to celebrate. I shall meet you
at the need of the road where the fruits fall.

“If there is any kindness I can show, or any
good thing I can do to any fellow being, let me do it now, and not deter or
neglect it, as I shall not pass this way again.” William Penn
